    du kan ikke krydse havet bare ved at stå og stirre på vandet. lad dig ikke forkæle forgæves ønsker.

    vous ne pouvez pas traverser la mer simplement en vous tenant debout et en regardant l'eau. ne vous laissez pas aller à de vains souhaits.

    आप केवल खड़े होकर पानी को घूर कर समुद्र पार नहीं कर सकते। अपने आप को व्यर्थ की इच्छाओं में शामिल न होने दें।

    ನೀರನ್ನು ನಿಂತು ನೋಡುವುದರ ಮೂಲಕ ನೀವು ಸಮುದ್ರವನ್ನು ದಾಟಲು ಸಾಧ್ಯವಿಲ್ಲ. ವ್ಯರ್ಥವಾದ ಆಶಯಗಳಲ್ಲಿ ಪಾಲ್ಗೊಳ್ಳಲು ಬಿಡಬೇಡಿ.

    je kunt de zee niet oversteken door alleen maar te staan en naar het water te staren. laat u niet overgeven aan ijdele wensen.

    آپ کو صرف کھڑے اور پانی میں گھوم کر سمندر سے پار نہیں کر سکتے ہیں. اپنے آپ کو بے شک خواہشات سے محروم کرنے دو.
